Universal Robots
Accelerate automation with Physical AI

Universal Robots designs and manufactures collaborative robots (cobots) for industrial automation, offering a range of models with varying payload and reach specifications. Their platform integrates Physical AI capabilities, enabling robots to perceive, adapt, and automate complex tasks in real manufacturing environments. The company supports an ecosystem of 1,200+ partners for deployment from single cells to global factory fleets.
Universal Robots provides production-grade cobot hardware paired with an open software platform (PolyScope X, ROS 2, URCaps) that allows AI models to integrate above the control layer while real-time safety and motion control remain enforced.
